@depths.untold4: One of the ocean's most disturbing survivors looks like something from another world. The lamprey has no jaws. Instead, its mouth forms a circular suction disc filled with rows of tooth-like structures. Parasitic species attach themselves to other fish, using a rasping tongue to break through tissue and feed on blood and other body fluids. Their saliva contains compounds that help keep the wound from clotting, allowing them to remain attached while they feed. But what makes lampreys even stranger is their history. Their lineage stretches back hundreds of millions of years, giving us a glimpse at an extremely ancient branch of vertebrate evolution. And despite their terrifying appearance, not all lamprey species are parasitic. Many never feed on another animal as adults. Some creatures evolved beyond recognition. Others barely needed to change.
